Super Simple Crochet Border for C2C Corner to Corner

[@jenreeves7684]

I am going to love putting this border on my washcloths from now on. I love how simple it is and how it cleans up the edges. Thanks so much for sharing your method.

[@SecretYarnery]

Sounds wonderful, Jen Reeves! Thanks!! 🌺🌷🌸

[@theresacarmen9557]

This is the best way to finish that I've found, it's the easiest and looks the best. ❤ And the narrator sounds just like Shania Twain lol. Pleasant to listen to 🙂

[@barbarawatts764]

Thank you. Yours is the easiest I've seen so far. I added a picot stitch between the 3 doubles. It turned out beautiful.

[@abbynormal4740]

I'm just starting a C2C baby blanket for our neighbor who's expecting a boy in May, and am so glad to come across this video. Plus, thanks Barbara Watts for the idea adding a picot between the 3dc's - that should add a nice touch without making the blanket too "girly". 😀

[@krislyon1745]

First C2C blanket finished and think I've found the perfect border for a novice like me.

[@SecretYarnery]

Sounds fabulous, @krislyon1745! Thanks! 🌺🌷🌸

[@severineg8702]

Thank you! I’ve struggled with borders on my C2C afghans. This will be an improvement. 😁

[@cathharr08]

I made a beautiful C2C blanket for my son and his partner and I was looking for a border that wasn’t too fussy. I think this is perfect. ❤️ thanks for sharing. This border brings me back to the basics of crocheting that I learned over 40 years ago.

[@SecretYarnery]

Sounds wonderful, Catherine Montalbano-Harris! Thanks!! 🌺🌷🌸

[@mariaturton9185]

Hi, I just finished my first C to C baby blanket and I looked for an easy pretty border and i found yours was the easiest and prettiest one. Loved it.

[@janiceforest408]

Nice instructions, thank you!

[@kerrynwright]

Loved how simply you did this Christa. I also love how you join in a new colour without tying a knot. Gotta do it like that in the future! Good tip! Thanks. Blessings. Kerryn

[@SecretYarnery]

Glad you liked it, Kerryn Wright! Thank you!! xx

[@katie-fq7dg]

I crocheted the first border (the one she did in green) for all my c2c squares in white and pastel colour blend yarn, then I connected them all with white and sparkle white and now I'm doing the border of the whole blanket with the final border she shows in his video (dc)with pink and white yarn twisted together, looks so pretty, thank you lots for this video, also I find that American terms are much easier to follow

Oh thank you so much, Katie's Art! 🌺🌻🌸

I’m doing a C2C at the moment with a variegated yarn. Would it look odd to carry on with all rounds of the border. Or should I choose just one block colour? #newbie

[@SecretYarnery]

Hi, @karenWiv!! How about one round of a solid color to frame it, and then the rest of your variegated yarn to make it bigger? Thank you! 🌻🌺🌼

Hi Christa, Love to begin with you started with a simple border but I love that it matches the rest of the c2c squares. At least there is an illusion that its part of the same pattern. Wahoo! You Go Grlfrn! Ok < Just looking out for you when I say ..giggle looks like everything has a glow in this video. I wish my skin was that young dewing happy happy again. Oh I digress ~ Lol LOl Just adds a glare to what your doing Prob the lighten direction or ? something easy. Didn't you just relocate the work space..anyway, Talk soon Hope your week is going delightfully.
